Through the beginning of the semester I’ve had a fascination with Bodoni typeface. Bodoni had created ornaments in his typeface for the bottom of pages for books as part of a design. Each letter, symbol and number has a designated ornament. These ornament designs were found in “Manuale Tipografico.” They were used to separate sections of text, to accent a page layout or now a days used for graphic design. These symbols have been used in graphic designs for elegant looking pieces. They have been nicely illustrated to be able to fit their pieces by using their unique shapes and form.
